Garlando turned to this military personnel.

“I’ll meet Red Hood first.”

The military personnel nodded.

“Of course, my Lord, let me take you to him.”

Garlando shook his head.

“No need, I’ll go there myself.”

Garlando walked away; the two military personnel bowed respectfully toward Garlando while positioning their right hands on their left chests. Garlando walked towards a wide elevator and entered it; the elevator door then closed.

The elevator Garlando was riding in moved down, then moved sideways in the metal rail frame supported by a metal frame mounted on the ceiling. The right and left views of the glass walls of this elevator show that this elevator moved quickly past the hangars containing fighter starplanes, personnel carrier fighter starplanes and sometimes passed through a vast area in the abyss where there were countless Titan Gears, displayed in slots in the abyss’ walls, with a harbor-like building above each Titan Gear. This elevator also ran into another elevator from the opposite direction several times. While traveling in the elevator, Garlando stood before the glass wall and watched the view outside the elevator as he thought.

 

"There are only two pirate groups’ captains who have ever dared to clash with Hunter Titan, one of them is Vermount Reid; the other is a person from decades ago, Vazarlo Roxel, the “Legendary Wanderer.” However, thanks to Vazarlo, who discovered an ancient artifact that made intergalactic travel a common thing, even over unknown distances. But above all, there are things that Vazarlo doesn't know about the universe. The universe is shaped like a thick disk separated by several sections, which we call “partitions,” which are strange, impenetrable walls that, from the start, made this journey impossible, and in the middle was an impassable cylindrical shape unknown area. But there is one partition that is different.... the partition that has what Vazarlo calls “The Last Planet.” But whatever it is, it is no more than a place we will rule it. It's time for Hunter Titan to meet other Titans. The era of the Titans will begin..."

 

Not long after, this elevator stopped moving, then moved upwards into an open metal sliding double door in the metal ceiling. The elevator doors opened, and in front of Garlando was a long corridor that extended to the right, front, and left. Garlando walked out of the elevator and then walked along a straight, glossy metal corridor. The mechanical legs resemble eight metal spider legs on Garlando's back, supporting his body, making the sound of metal tapping as he walked.

At the end of this corridor is a sliding metal double door, which opens automatically when Garlando passes through and then closes again. Garlando arrived in a spacious room that formed a half dome, the metal walls with rows of windows with sturdy metal frames; showing the outside view, there were lines and rows of heavy laser weapons: armored dual cannons, armored dual rotary canons, and various sized buildings and skyscraper made of grayish-black metal, in the Black Moon surface.

A person stands facing the glass panes before him, looking at the view outside. This man wore a red short-sleeved, knee-length overcoat with a hood pulled over his head. The middle of the overcoat was opened to reveal a black t-shirt covered with a black waistcoat, long black jeans, a belt, and boots. On the visible part of the forearm and upper arm, the back of his hand, and the upper half of his fingers, there is black carved metal resembling armor; this armor is merged to his hands and arms, like an exoskeleton. Garlando said.

"Sorry for making you wait, Red Hood."

Red Hood turned his body towards Garlando. A human male in his 20s with short, stylishly styled hair. It turns out that one-third of Red Hood's face is covered with something that resembles armor, like what is on his arms, as well as part of his neck.

“It's okay, Garlando. I really want to see this place, which really amazed me.”

Garlando nodded.

"Maybe I'll open my mask a little so we won't be too awkward."

Red Hood looked slightly surprised to hear that. Garlando pressed one part of his metal mask; the mask opened slightly and showed part of Garlando's face from under the nose to the mouth and part of the cheek, where the chin was still covered by this part of the mask. Garlando smiled.

“Sorry about earlier, but this is the only part of my face left.”

Red Hood smiled.

"Of course, Garlando. You're not the only one who has problems with the only part of my face left here."

Garlando smiled.

"To think that after all that conflict, you would even come all the way here from Earth."

Red Hood nodded.

“Thanks to Vazarlo, the word far is now not something that takes time.”

Garlando nodded.

"Your decision to side with TITAN is correct; I guarantee you will not regret it."

Red Hood's expression turned serious.

"Of course, whatever it is, even if it is only a small possibility to protect the earth, I will do it."

Garlando grinned.

"Then we don't need to be awkward with each other anymore, right?"

Red Hood smiled, then looked back at the view outside the window’s panes.

"So, what's the first thing we're going to do now?"

Garlando walks up to the glass wall, catching Red Hood's attention.

“Soon, our fleet preparations will be completed, and we will depart. First of all, according to my promise, I will show you the partition wall of the universe that I have been telling you about, according to what you want."

Red Hood's expression turned curious. Garlando continued speaking.

"After that, we will go to the Weapon Titan first, then the Shield Titan after that."

Red Hood nodded; he then remembered something.

“What about the Arcana?”

Garlando was slightly surprised, then smiled.

"No need to worry; you leave them to me."

Red Hood looked a little hesitant, then nodded. Garlando resumed talking.

"While you wait, you can stay in the room I provided for you."

Red Hood smiled.

"Thank you. I'll take a look at this place first."

Garlando nodded.

"Go ahead; I'll excuse myself. I have a business to attend to."

Garlando then walked out of the room. Red Hood watched him for a moment with a curious expression, then turned back to face the window’s panes.

Red Hood walked at some area of the Black Moon, in a long corridor lined with metal framed glass walls that showed the atmosphere outside the building. Red Hood passes by a place that shows one of the abyss of the Black Moon, with several starplanes flying out or flying into it. Red Hood got on the elevator, which moved quickly in the metal rail frame between parts of the Black Moon like a fast train, and passed through the massive turbine section that Garlando's starplane had previously passed, leaving him amazed.

“This place is amazing.”

Red Hood's attention was focused on the control panel in this elevator, and he found that there were six massive turbines similar to those in Black Moon. The elevator that Red Hood was riding then passed at countless number of Titan Gears, making Red Hood shiver when he saw it.

“Is it possible to defeat a fleet this size? I can't let something like this get close to earth.”

Red Hood looked at the scene outside the glass wall in amazement.

After some time wandering around some of the Black Moon’s area, Red Hood walked into a room from an automatic metal sliding entrance door. A bedroom with a bed on a higher floor surface, a group of sofas, bookshelves, and cupboards merged into the glossy metal walls, and the rows of metal framed glass wall panes that show a view of heavy laser weapons and several skyscraper-like buildings on the surface of the Black Moon. Unbeknownst to Red Hood, someone was sitting at the bar in this room and was watching him in astonishment.

"It took you a long time to get here."

Red Hood immediately turned toward the source of the voice.

A man in his 20s, with slightly long hair that was stylishly styled, wearing a blue knee-length short-sleeved overcoat, with the middle open, wearing top clothes of flexible thin black armor, black trousers, and knee-high grayish-black armored boots.

"Let me introduce myself; I am Sakazo, one of the Arcana of the Hunter Titan race."

Red Hood was surprised; he then entered a stance ready to attack.

“Arcana, you say?”

Sakazo was surprised and gave a hand signal for Red Hood to stop.

“Calm down. Red Hood, right? Why do you want to fight me?"
